As nothing else has been posted, I figured I'd open this up to discussion.

A brilliant race, I thought. Lots of fantastic battles. An intelligent strategy from Ferrari. Not too chaotic or arbitrary. Albon fighting on 40-lap old tires for a huge P7.

How'd everyone else enjoy it?

I know Max doesn't need the help but my god Perez does not deserve that Red Bull put Norris in it or something.

Put Albon back in that car, now that he has the experience. He's proving how good he is at Williams.

+1 for putting Norris in as a fan. However if I was Red Bull management I'd keep giving him one year contracts until be becomes a liability. They've got constructors nailed on and a clear driver hierarchy. It's ideal for them.

Good strategy from Ferrari? The end times are nigh

[-] jonj@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago

The strategy was scary! Maybe with Meckies off to a new team someone else is getting a say

I think they used all the bad choices with sainz… although I can’t blame them, a race here with no SC was really an oddity.

I can’t understand how Perez just couldn’t compete with Ferrari’s pace at all. Not his best circuit.

not the best driver.

Favorite moment was Alonso's pit telling him Hamilton was just 1.9s behind. "Okay, leave it to me." And then suddenly it was a 6 second gap.

What the heck happened with Checo? He should have had a podium, but just got lost in a DRS train I guess?

[-] Entropywins@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

It seems like he's just lost confidence or something... he's not in the all time greats category but he should be able to push a little harder

[-] Ronno@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago

But what did Lando do though?

[-] WatTyler@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 1 year ago

My understanding is that he slowed down on the race track leading up to pit entry so that McLaren could double-stack him after Piastri. It's against the rules to deliberately go slow and impede like that.

@WatTyler makes sense, but its sad that it wasn’t covered in the broadcast

[-] WatTyler@lemmy.sdf.org 0 points 1 year ago

They did discuss it on the international (Sky) broadcast.

[-] Ronno@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago

@WatTyler was unfortunately listening to the Dutch one

[-] d0mth0ma5@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 1 year ago

Ted whinged about the nondescript nature of the penalty so much that someone from the FIA got in touch to tell them what it was for.

Yo why is this thread still here?!
